Sin*, the ■ton* world war began vary Bttlc boo M*u hoard of this rroot navy, and th* qtodisa baa freqweatty boon ■•had, "What la th* Britioh Nary do ing?” “ h i statement made by Uoyd Georg* to tho Boom of Com mons recently, this question is aatfa fhctorily answered. aa follows: Dur tag tho Menu of th^war this navy baa one Mod thirteen mlUoa men to croea and rocroaa th* sees, with tho teas of only three thousand. five hun drad man. It hao she safeguarded th* traaaportation of tvrenty-Bv* raO Bon ton* of gsploaivoa. and fifty-one million tout of coaL That alone is surely u wonderful foot ef naval sfl elaacy. But this la not a*, for while protecting the shipping interests of th* Allice. and making It pomibls for them to prooeeot* tho war, it has kept th* sons closed to th* enemy navies and rendered their battle-ship* useless and impotent The British Premier does not overstate the case in saying that the British Navy Is “th* anchor of the Allied cause." Is justice always meted out by th* courts ef our country? Does the ob -curv Individual fare aa wall at th* “prominent eitiicn"? Con we reason ably aspect the citisaaahip of our country to respect our low* if dis crimination Is winked at in so-called courts of Justice? Is it possible fo a people to continue to snjoy the special favor end blessings of th* great Ruler of th* universe when th* legal tribunals discriminate against on* class and In favor ef another? The** questions are suggested by the outcome of some cases that have boon discussed In the papers recently. A good character ibouM be considered by say legal tribunal as a valuable asset, bat more prominence, In many eases enjoyed because of more worthy ancsotoim. should afford no protection trom simple justice. Neither do sre believe that tha color of one’s akin should pines turn at any disadvantage before a court of justice. Society haa an unquestioned right to fix and •store* notations for social Ufa, but ■II citizens should stand upon absolute equality before the laws of our coun try. It may be that the taws arc aa well enforced today as they have ever been, but Is it not a fact that we ban a right to expect BETTER en forcement of laws than ever before 7 We enjoy better conditions today than has ever been enjoyed in our country before. We have man light than •ur fathers enjoyed, and are bettor equipped for Hvee of intelligent ser vlet to Ood and humanity than they were, and certainly it is perfectly reasonable to look- for greeter efl eleaey ia every walk of Ufa. Early return* ui the Tuesday's election ia tha State af Ohio indicate that Prohibition won out in the ax ritiug don test.

In this election It teams that Woman Suffrage waa defeated, hot mea can affordto^Asit a'Wie white for the right to vote. „ * **** Monday night of this week a bur filar entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Plummer, 118 West Morgan street, Raleigh, bent on robery. Mr. Plummer waa away from homo, but expected back almost any tin*. Little Lney, the four months eld baby daughter af Mr. and Mm. Plummer, was sleeping in an adjoining room to tha one occupied by Mm. Plummer and the two older children. Tbs baby bad bean fretful all the first part of the night, but about half peat on* o’ clock she became quiet and all slept wall until about three o’clock, wbca Mm. Plummer board some one In her kitchen. Thinking k waa her husband •he called his name, at which tha bur glar became alarmed and lamped out through a window. The alarm was given, and tha police force went to wont on the case at once. Prom that time on to about nine o'clock tha next ■naming an scat quiet la tha room m which little Lacy was sleeping. Mrs. Plummer wondering that her baby did not awake, wont into the room to find that she had boon strangled to dsatb during tha night by the brut* who had I tiered the House. It la supposed That the child began to fret and to shield himself from detection tha bruts checked her to death. A reward of six hundred dollar* was vary prompt ly offered for hi* arrest, and every effort wilt bo made to bring him to ‘uMier a* speedily iu possible. Rev. J. A. Mui,* th* gifted and duquent pastor of the first Baptist Church of Dusn, has offered his ser vice* to "Uncle Sam” as a chaplain in lU SM mueA mamas Km eafloJ lla.__ anr.tlaw. Dr. Ellis has bm ia Donn only a faw a oaths, bat during »ho* **»• h« has bap ran id the people of Ms Congregation and of the an tire tewa aa pocaharty fitted for tho work J* tbo jaialotry, and they regret to bare hka bare the town.

While the work k being done in the interior of the main auditorium of the Church, workmen are engaged in the basement installing the beat ing fixtures, which they promise to have la working order within a few weeks. At the isms time the walks In front of the Church and parsonage art well on the war to completion. When the building Is completed, and the grounds shout it beautified ns is con templated tt will be one of the very prettiest and most conveniently ar ranged Chucbee in the Conference Tress early returns from the New York election, held Tuesday of ihk week, It seen certain that the “Em- I pirn State” has gone for Woman Suffrage by a safe majority. The good women ssay possess their souk in patience for nothing that is in the future u more certain than that their rights to exercise equal franchise with men ia near at hand. Some months ago former Preel dest became contributing editor of the Kansas City Star, and his contri buttons to that paper have received wide attention throughout the coun try. On tbo first of thk month form er President W.*H. Taft became con tributing editor if the Philadelphia Public Ledger, and this fact ha* been heralded abroad as a great event These two great men have been highly honored by oar country, and unques tionably they both ardently love their country, bat unfortunately they do not levs each other os great and good men should. At ono time they were the best of friends, and it is n well known fact that Mr. Roosevelt made Mr. Taft President, and equally well known tkat be unmade him at the close of hk term. Th* two men are th* very antipode* of each other In temperament, and it is n wonder that •lsm«> swan bald__ —i___ to such nn extent w to support genu hs iriondihip. But whether thsy lors each other or not the country trill be glad to hear what they have to aay in their respective papers. Tho capture ot tho ancient city of Beersheba by tbs British forcei has ot attracted any great attention from the public, but it was an important event nevertheless. I believe this city is first mentioned in the 91st chanter of Gensia aa the place where Abra ham dug a well for his flocks sad herds It is located about twenty miles south of Habron In the Hot} Land of ancient Palestine The cn ward drive of the British forces it toward the once sacred city of Jeru salem, and it is confidently ospooled that within a faw months that city will be wrested from the cruel Tu.ks. aad once more enjoy the blessed liber ties that have co long been denied her eitisans. If Pales tins U to be wrested from the Turks, and Ira in formed into a Christian State, it will go far toward compensating for the frightful cost of such an enterprise. We have confidence that the God whoa sea so imperfectly servo is able to mako the wrath ot man to prails Hi*>» wd wt arc wiling to Imvi r« ■alia i, Hia Hands._ ^ As is known to the readers of th* Dispatch a campaign is now on for thirty-five million dollars needed for the work of the T. M. C. A. connected with the American soldiers at bom* and abroad. The amount pportionsd to North Carolina is three hundred thousand dollars. The State has been divided into Districts, and amounts apportioned to the different districts. Harnett is in a district com posed of Robeson, Hoke, Cumberland and Harriett, and to tills dim let hut been apportioned ten thousand dol lars. For such a cause it ought to bo aa easy matter for the** four rich count!** to raise thb amount, and wt believe it will ba. A preliminary meeting waa held in the First Baptist Church Wedner dsy night of this weak, and addretaet were delivered by Rev. J. 8. Snyder and Mr. C. 0. Rose of Fayetteville, Mr. J. C Clifford and Rov J A ElHs of Dunn Mr. Clarence J. Smith pre sided at the meeting, and also mads a talk In the interest of the work in hand. Another meeting will be held In the First Baptist Church next Sun day night, beginning at 7 o’clock. Rep resentatives of the enterprise from Charlotte win be present at this mast ing, and deliver addresses setting forth the importance of this work. An organ (ration will be effected, end the work will be systematically car ried forward to a successful Us'.i*. The canvass for funds will not be fin until the llth of tho month, but much preliminary work must be done before that date, *f it is tv succeed as it so richly deserves to do.
